I said that because that's how people in the western world know the revolution, of course the Tunisian revolution is pretty much autonomous and very unionist in nature.
Yes i saw that, he was actually inspired by the Tunisian student who burned himself alive as protest, in fact from that student protest started the Tunisian revolution in reality in that day , plus in the same day the independent Tunisian labor union UGTT ( which shockingly, resembles an anarcho-syndicalist union) called a general strike and things kicked off. The internet was a major help for the people there, exactly like Iran's green revolts the internet offered a medium for communication and mobilization, especially in Tunisia where Internet is needed because the western media tries to ignore the revolution because Ben Ali and his dictatorial regime was an ally of the west in fact was a puppet government.
